This morning we went to the Merkato. We hired 3 security guards to
walk us through. It was quite interesting. We purchased some nice
fabric. It was very hard to buy anything there because it was so busy.
We left Jakob with a sitter this morning. He did very well. We were so
happy when we picked him up, he gave us a big smile.
This afternoon we had our Embassy appointment. We were not allowed to
use our cameras at the Embassy so we have no pictures. However
everything went well. We have Jakob's birth certificate. Tomorrow
morning we will run to pick up his VISA, then we can come home. YEA!
Today was a very busy day. We didn't even get a break for lunch. We
are getting ready to go to the Crown Hotel for dinner tonight. It is
the traditional Ethiopian Dinner with dancers and music. Should be a
fun time. Dad & Kathy are not too excited for the food, so they are
hoping to get some French fries before we go.
Jakob is a very happy baby. He sleeps a lot and likes to play with his
toys. He loves to admire his fingers. Jakob also had his 1st sleep
over with nana & papa last night. I was feeling quite sick, so I took
some medicine and finally slept all night.
The country is beautiful. The people are very nice. However we are
ready to come home. Tomorrow we are headed to the Hilton to have a day
of relaxation by the pool. It has been a very busy trip. Only 2 more
days and we are headed home.
We are not sure what we want 1st a warm shower or a good dinner. It is
quite a toss up.
We should have fun pool pictures tomorrow.
Hugs & Kisses
Jakob, Rick, & Mandi
